May 5, 2025 - What can we do if Congress passes a bad law? For example, Congress mandates that billions of dollars be spent on aid programs to the Ukraine, the Middle East and other troubled areas. Of course, we can protest or refuse to pay part of our taxes. But if you try that, the IRS will come after you. In this week’s column, I am going to talk about a remedy for such bad laws. States have the power to nullify unconstitutional laws so they do not apply within that state. For example, if the Alabama legislature nullified foreign aid, the people of Alabama could not be taxed for this purpose.
